Gherghe Eliminates Vican in the First Hand
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
The first hand of the main event at Table 34 escalated quickly. With approximately 5,000 already in the middle, the action picked up on a flop of 3?J?8?.
Michael Sklenicka led out with a bet of 2,100, and Ivan Vican made the call. Razvan Gherghe then raised to 7,200 and got a call from Sklenicka. When the action returned to Vican, he announced all in for 25,000.
Gherghe tanked for a while but eventually moved all in over the top, leaving Sklenicka with a tough decision. After deliberating, Sklenicka folded, saying he had 9?10?.
Ivan Vican: A?Q? 
Razvan Gherghe: J?J?
Vican needed to dodge the board pairing to survive. The 6? on the turn kept him alive, but the river 8? gave Gherghe a full house, eliminating Vican.
